Hi Everyone I use zoom API v2 I want to find all recordings for meeting. I use [/meetings/{meetingId}/recordings](https://developer.zoom.us/playground/#/Cloud%20Recording/recordingGet) endpoint Input parameter is meetingId There are comment **The meeting ID or meeting UUID. If given meeting ID, will take the last meeting instance.** If I use Id The api will return recordings But If i use UUID I will message  ``` **There is no recording for this meeting** 1) What difference between meeting ID and meeting UUID ? 2) Why do API endpoint not return recordings by meeting UUID ? ``` ---

Hi Mike,  Can you provide us the meeting ID and meeting UUID? Also, below is an explanation between meeting ID and meeting UUID. MeetingID - meeting number Meeting UUID - meeting UUID   One meeting can be launched many times, there is only one meetingID of one meeting, but it will generate many meeting UUIDs. One meeting instance will have one meeting UUID. So one meeting can only have one meetingID, but it can also have many meetingUUIDs.   Meeting UUID is used to retrieve the past meeting instance. If the customer use the meetingID to retrieve the past meeting data, it will take the last meeting instance.     Thanks ---

Hi Michael Thanks for explanation about different between MeetingID and UUID! Problem with finding recording for meeting by UUID i resolved. It was problem with library which I used to do API request. But I was confused by SWAGGER from [https://developer.zoom.us/playground/#/Cloud%20Recording/recordingGet](https://developer.zoom.us/playground/#/Cloud%20Recording/recordingGet) I tried to use this endpoint for finding recordings but i got message NOT FOUND. I have used Chrome browser. and example in swagger doesn’t work. How I understood problem is in UUID. This value contains special symbols like “+”, “/”, “=”. Maybe browser encodes this chars and I cannot get result. But It works in POSTMAN. ---

Lucky this thread was here. I was baffled about what uuid/id difference might be. Is this anywhere in the docs? I can’t find a list of what objects and their properties are. The devdocs api reference just says e.g., ‘returns an object’ but doesn’t describe the object. ---

Hi James,  Currently, the difference between uuid and id is not in our Docs. We’ll talk with our team to see when we’ll update our docs accordingly.  Thanks  ---

Hey everyone, Recently we launched **Zoom Rivet for Node.js**. Zoom Rivet is **Zoom’s Official API Library and API Wrapper**. We currently support Node.js. Java, Python, GO, C#, and other languages are coming soon or being considered. [Zoom Rivet](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/rivet/javascript/get-started/) is available on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@zoom/rivet) and can be used to automatically handle [OAuth](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/rivet/javascript/authorization/) and easily call [Zoom APIs](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/) like [Meetings](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/meetings/), [Phone](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/phone/), [Users](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/users/), [Team Chat](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/team-chat/), [Chatbot](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/chatbot/), [Accounts](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/accounts/), [Video SDK](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/video-sdk/), and more. It even includes a Webhook server to easily receive Zoom [Webhooks](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/api/webhooks/). ```auto npm install @zoom/rivet ``` Example that handles OAuth and calls a Meeting API and listens to a webhook event: ```js import { MeetingsS2SAuthClient } from "@zoom/rivet/meetings"; (async () => { const meetingsClient = new MeetingsS2SAuthClient({ clientId: process.env.CLIENT_ID, clientSecret: process.env.CLIENT_SECRET, webhooksSecretToken: process.env.WEBHOOKS_SECRET_TOKEN, accountId: process.env.ACCOUNT_ID }); // Rivet Events and Endpoints Go Here meetingsClient.endpoints.meetings.getMeeting({ path: { meetingId: "MEETINGID" } }).then((response) => { console.log(response) }); meetingsClient.webEventConsumer.event("meeting.started", (response) => { console.log(response.payload); }) const server = await meetingsClient.start(); console.log(`Zoom Rivet Events Server running on: ${JSON.stringify(server.address())}`); })(); ``` NPM: > **[@zoom/rivet](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@zoom/rivet)** > > Zoom Rivet is a comprehensive toolkit built to help developers quickly integrate and manage server-side applications within the Zoom ecosystem.
